In the land of legendary creatures, who emerges to be the best of the big boys [and girls and its]? This post addresses 10+ of them (plus, because there’s lots of champions here!). This post is kind of long, so click “Read More” to discover who loves Cryptids Island on Poptropica, what Poptropicans’ beliefs on Cryptids Island are, and some PHB updates! First, the Bigfoot Buddy! (see picture above) He’s the perfect accompaniment when it comes time for you to head up into the Himalayas in search of that mysterious yeti. Get the Big Foot Fanatic outfit in the Poptropica Store today!
Then we’ve got our first ten finishers of Cryptids Island! The Creators say, “It took longer than usual for the first Poptropica Members to complete our newest Island. I guess that means Cryptids really is the biggest and best adventure so far!” Maybe it is! Congratulations to:

Nice job, all of you! Tons of other members have finished Cryptids Island since then, so keep up the good work guys! 😀
Who’s the other big boy? It’s a cryptid, actually! If you haven’t already encountered the Jersey Devil on Poptropica, the PCB has a post just for him!
Know Your Cryptids: Jersey Devil
Jersey Devil: What’s its situation?Cryptids Island is here! Before you take on some of the world’s most fearsome mythical monsters, we’d like to tell you a little bit about the legends.
They say that in the deepest, darkest woods of New Jersey’s Pine Barrens, Mother Leeds was about to give birth to her 13th child. “Let it be a devil!” she cried in exasperation. When the baby was born it sprouted wings and horns, and flew off into the night.
Since then, sightings of the “Jersey Devil” have persisted throughout southern New Jersey. Footprints, unearthly howls, even direct sightings have been reported. A naval commander once fired a cannonball at a strange creature he thought to be the Jersey Devil, to no effect.
Today, tales of the Jersey Devil are largely dismissed, and the creature itself is thought of as a joke. It even inspired the name of an ice hockey team, the New Jersey Devils. But there are still those who claim they can hear the beast’s eerie wail in the night…
Do you believe in the Jersey Devil?
Also on the PCB are two polls asking about your cryptid beliefs! The results might interest you, but what do YOU believe? O:

The Poptropica Help Blog has released a new page under “Cool Stuff”! On our Membership Tour page, inspired by Poptropica’s own version, learn about the benefits of getting membership for your Poptropican. Then decide for yourself whether the benefits of membership are worth the price tag, and if it is, then find out how you can get that membership for yourself! It’s a great article especially for those who are contemplating getting a Poptropica membership for the holidays in time to play Cryptids Island in early access!
As you might remember, iMango/Tsuki-Yoha/Cool Wing recently resigned from posting on the PHB, saying it has been a good, short run. She’s selected RavenClawGurl to take over her author spot, and while we will miss her, we’re also excited to welcome a new face on the PHB Team. 🙂

Why can’t you be like Green Boa and make them all funny with Captian Crawfish or somethin. (remember the Great Pumpkim Winners) Now that’s just not fair at all, because we’re not members. (unless you make something for first 10 nonmember winners)
I actually started the Captain Crawfish nomming thing on the PHB, and Green Boa does a great job with it too, but I don’t always add it because 1) it’s time-consuming to do; 2) this post is already very long and adding too much text might make it load slower; 3) we might run out of Cpt Crawfishes to nom. So, I hope you understand.
Awesome, long, post Hijuyo! 🙂 One more thing, the Bigfoot costume is ONE HUNDRED CREDITS, not seventy-five! >:O
Wow………..
I’m so mad that the bigfoot buddy is 100 credits! I wish all the costumes would stay 75 credits! But I still bought it
RavenClawGurl? OMZ ! I know her!!
That first place finisher on the island is me! I guess hard work really does pay off. Can’t wait for the next island.
